FUTO Keyboard
The goal is to make a good modern keyboard that stays offline and doesn't spy on you. This keyboard is a fork of LatinIME, The Android Open-Source Keyboard, with significant changes made to it.

Issue tracking and contributing
Please check the GitHub repository to report issues: https://github.com/futo-org/android-keyboard/
The source code is hosted on our internal GitLab and mirrored to GitHub. As registration is closed on our internal GitLab, we use GitHub instead for issues and pull requests.
If you want to help translate the app, please do so via our Pontoon instance: https://i18n-keyboard.futo.org/
Due to custom license, pull requests to this repository require signing a CLA which you can do after opening a PR. Contributions to the layouts repo don't require CLA as they're Apache-2.0
Please do not submit AI-generated pull requests, as these tend to make the codebase more difficult to understand. Pull requests made with clear heavy use of AI may be closed without comment. Please also avoid using AI to write issues, and try to explain it in your own words instead.

Building
When cloning the repository, you must perform a recursive clone to fetch all dependencies:
git clone --recursive https://gitlab.futo.org/keyboard/latinime.git
If you forgot to specify recursive clone, use this to fetch submodules:
git submodule update --init --recursive
You can then open the project in Android Studio and build it that way, or use gradle commands:
./gradlew assembleUnstableDebug
./gradlew assembleStableRelease
